Can I say a thank you in the Journal to the lovely people who put on a most wonderful event at Salem Chapel, East Budleigh, at the weekend of May 7/8?

We all had a most enjoyable weekend, meeting our local authors, including John Greenslade from Radio Devon, David Prowse, local radio for 20 years and in the Western Morning News (Poetry Corner), also honoured by Cornish Govedd and made Bard in 1998.

Also, many thanks to Rosemary A Smith, Janet T Sawyer, John Payne, Bob Cretney, Christopher Long, Gerald Millington, John Pascoe Watson, Anthony Robinson, Karen Blunn, with her wildlife photographs, and our own local, Ken Walker.

Also, thank you for all the help given by Mrs Margaret Brett.

Thank you, all you lovely people for giving of your time and talent and making it such a wonderful weekend.
